• Failure to provide the SBA with annual financial statements or quarterly financials.
• Failure to submit an updated 8(a) Business Plan.

• Failure to keep all required permits or licenses.
• Taking excessive compensation from the business.
• Failure to obtain written approval for any management agreement, joint venture agreement or any other agreement relative to the performance of an 8(a) contract.
• Paying a consultant too much to help market your business.
• Failure by business or owner to maintain the economic disadvantage metrics.
• and more…
